Farsi Therapists in Philadelphia, PA
My approach towards healing isn't one dimensional, just like healing isn't linear. As a therapist, I bring a relational therapy approach to my work. I am trained in EMDR, Psychodynamic work, and Internal Family Systems. I let clients dictate the kind of care they are looking for, and sometimes that changes from session to session. I understand that my own identies inform how I see the world and I believe in being transparent with my clients about this. I try to take as many insurance carriers as I can to keep this service fair to both of us. Sliding scale is also available.

Life can be very overwhelming, and on top of that, we have ourselves to contend with - but you don't have to go through this experience alone. I'm glad you are searching for a therapist. Whether you're struggling with certain aspects of your life or you are interested in personal enrichment and self-understanding, the right therapist can be a vital part of your journey. I believe there are opportunities to find joy and humor even when confronting serious challenges or engulfed in shadow. With that in mind, allow me to introduce myself:

"It's a joy to be hidden and disaster not to be found." - Winnicott. As a child, I remember playing the game hide-and-seek, having the delight of safety and the excitement of being hidden, followed quickly by a desire to be found and not left alone. We are still the same kids, perhaps a little taller, bigger. We still want our sanctuary, but we also have the desire to be free. I might be the right person to help you feel comfortable enough to be found.

Our struggles & pain thrive in isolation, you don't have to do this alone. My approach to therapy is gentle, affirming & collaborative. Guided by trauma-informed philosophy, I view therapy as a collaboration; a space where trust + healing are co-created. Working with a therapist requires vulnerability & courage, it taps into & tests our innate strengths. It may be challenging at times, and our capacity for being challenged varies one session to the next, so my priority is to periodically check-in and move at your pace. Sometimes we may slow down, and other times, I'll gently nudge towards critical self-reflection.
